Revelations

I am doing the ten day, ten photos, with no explanations, on being a mother for Facebook, so I went back through tons of photos one of my sons scanned for me.

I found way more than ten, but very few of me because I am the one who took pictures in our family.

Today I posted one of the few with me in it and I had an awful revelation. I loved the woman in that picture. She was beautiful! She was the way I always imagined wanting to be. Truly, all my life I wanted to look like her.

How could I never have realized I did?
